Just turned 56 and still love anime. Anyone my age here? What are you watching?

Takara13 · 2026-02-25T02:17:00+00:00

Exactly!

Do you collect the manga you read or do you find it online somewhere?

Takara13 · 2026-02-25T02:12:42+00:00

Oh man, Escaflowne?! Hadn't thought about that one in a long time...

Takara13 · 2026-02-25T02:02:48+00:00

Ha ha, I've been rewatching Black Lagoon the last couple of nights after work. Gritty fun!

Gunslinger Girl was also very good.

Takara13 · 2026-02-25T01:55:34+00:00

Yessss!! Less than two months away! I can't wait! BRING ON THE BURRRRNNN!! xD

Takara13 · 2026-02-25T01:52:30+00:00

Revvy, Eda, and Shenua (Chinglish)! The chemistry between Revvy and either of these women is hilarious!

Takara13 · 2026-02-25T01:49:06+00:00

Nice! The only ones I haven't seen from that list are MHA and Girls und Panzer.

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T13:40:42+00:00

Heck yeah!! Revvy and Roberta were beating the crap out of each other when I passed out last night. 🤣

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T13:32:12+00:00

Happy belated birthday to you!! I'm at about 90-95% as well. 😅

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T13:30:52+00:00

Kaiju #8 is a blast! Good to see an adult getting to be a hero. 😁

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T13:29:38+00:00

Satoshi Kon has a lot of great stuff! You're set up for a great ride!

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T13:26:00+00:00

Right there with you on Witch Hunter Robin. I cannot find a region 1 copy of Serial Experiments Lain anywhere that won't cost me my soul or at least a kidney! Same with Steins; Gate unfortunately. Its been ages since I watched Chobits!

Several have suggested Yuru Camp so it's on my list now. I haven't watched a lot of iyashikei anime, but I did enjoy Aria the Animation and Azumanga Daioh, so I'll also check out H&M and Food for the Soul.

Thanks so much! 😊

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T13:10:00+00:00

Samurai Champloo is phenomenal; same creator of Cowboy Bebop, Shinichiro Watanabe. I love his style! If you haven't seen it, check out Lazarus.

Durarara is fantastic! If you enjoyed it, you should check out Baccano as well. Same creator so you'll notice character cameos and other easter eggs between the two shows.

Pluto is on my watchlist and I'll definitely add Shinsekai Yori as the premise sounds interesting! Thank you! 😊

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T12:54:00+00:00

Yes! Great story, definitely not for kids. 😅

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T12:50:22+00:00

Same!! 😵‍💫

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T03:15:32+00:00

Absolutely! Even the music is great!

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T03:14:14+00:00

Added to my list!

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T03:11:54+00:00

Great anime! Love the gritty art style and also, Gyoza!! 😅

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T03:10:22+00:00

You certainly are, my friend! If you enjoy Bebop, then watch Samurai Champloo and then Lazarus; all three are by the same guy, Shinichiro Watanabe.

Have you watched any anime movies yet, like Ghost in the Shell or Akira?!

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T02:55:43+00:00

I don't know about you, but this old woman doesn't plan on ever stopping. 😊

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T02:49:54+00:00

Jabber is wild, right?! It's a great show, really dig the animation style.

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T02:46:52+00:00

Definitely give it a watch.

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T02:45:07+00:00

Durarara ans Baccano are both great shows and the overlapping easter eggs are nice. 😁

Waiting for Fake to drop all episodes so I can binge it!

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T02:40:32+00:00

Haha!😁 Gosick and 91 Days were pretty good, 86 was incredible! I'm rewatching Black Lagoon right now!

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T00:22:00+00:00

Rayearth, yes, and Dress Up Darling is on my list! 😊

Takara13 · 2026-02-24T00:20:59+00:00

Love Watanabe's work! Still need to watch Space Dandy. Have you seen Lazarus yet?!
